   Microsoft asked a federal appeals court on Wednesday to block the
   United States government from forcing the company to hand over a
   customer’s emails stored on a server in Ireland, warning that the
   precedent would create a “global free-for-all” that eviscerates
   personal privacy. The case is the first in which an American company
   has challenged a warrant seeking data held abroad. The appeal centers
   on a search warrant seeking the emails of an unidentified person in
   Dublin as part of a drug investigation. Nearly 100 organizations and
   individuals filed briefs in support of Microsoft’s position, including
   tech giants like Apple and media companies like McClatchy.

   A version of this brief appears in print on September 10, 2015, on page
   B2 of the New York edition with the headline: Microsoft Challenges
   Warrant for Emails Stored in Ireland. Order Reprints| Today's
